MyLackey Sounds Desperate

from the oops dept

Got this one from our friend Pud over at FuckedCompany.com. He's apparently gotten ahold of a letter from the CEO of MyLackey.com to all of its employees where he freaks out because people aren't in the office. I can understand him getting angry, but to then institute mandatory work hours (8am to 7pm with 30 minutes for lunch) is only going to piss off his employees more. Anyway, I have no way of verifying the email, so if it turns out to be fake, don't blame me.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

    Buh-bye!

    Thought for the day: What if they had a start-up and nobody came?

    it's true... well, almost

    looks like at least some of the mail is true, although likely doctored by some disgruntled employee. check out the story in the seattle times

    MyLackey.com, MissFortune.gon poor customers

    I realize that Mylackey.com has closed its doors and is out of venture capital. But they left customers stranded who used their serivces.

    We want to let those customers know that we will pick up the Mylackey void in the market and offer our services to them and even match the prices.

    Our site is www.orderawash.com

    and www.ewashguy.com

    We will come out and service any former MyLackey.com customer and offer a free first time service.

    We also help kids doing car wash fundraisers:

    We are a Nationwide franchise Company with 183 units in many markets in the US. We also have a 1-800 dispatch number and we have been in this industry for over 24 years.

    http://www.carwashguys.com/history/beginning.html

    Just because another Vulture capitalized .com bites the dust is no reason for the customer to suffer. We will always be here for the customer the community and our franchise network.

    Thank you,
